We are reviewing all the cancelled shows and renewed shows of 2011. And the year came out in its first week already giving way to a couple renewals. AMC wants to renew Mad Men for a fifth season. In this case, doubts are not wether the network wants or not to bring Mad Men back for a fith season. That´s decided.
What´s missing for it to be an official confirmation and announcement? As AMC SVP Joel Stillerman told reporters before introducing The Killing panel, there is no deal yet with Lionsgate TV for a fifth season of Mad Men or between Lionsgate and series creator Matthew Weiner for him to continue on the show.
It´s up to negotiations still, and probably come February more news can come around, hopefully in the form of official confirmation that AMC renews Mad Men.
Show´s been critically acclaimed, goes very well in the ratings, and the storylines are still open. So, what other thing rather than money can be in the way?
So, what do you think about Mad Men renewal status for fifth season? Would you watch it? Let me know in the comments section.
Also, remember to follow me on Twitter for more Cancelled and renewed shows news such as this renewal status for Mad Men by AMC.
To be honest, during season 1 and 2 I despised Mad Men for winning awards and awards over House (favorite show of mine), but after watching the whole series I have to admit I Love the 60s!
It would be a shame if MadMen is not coming back for a fifth season, especially with the story still incomplete. Actually, quoting Anderson Cooper, that this is nonsense and should definately be confirmed by the end of January.
I’ll try to ignore this news and hopefully hear soon that its still on. I’m keeping in mind that its coming back. Hope to hear more revelations in the story soon.
